What's your favorite affiliate network and why? (CJ, LinkShare, etc.)

Hmmm... that's a tough one. I guess I'll have to say CJ mainly because I've been using them since 2000 so it's more of a familiarity thing than anything else. I recently started using Clickbank but they don't have a lot of products that I want to promote for my web hosting site.

Ugh...I hate CJ!

Their control panel is way too confusing. I find LinkShare is best and they seem to have the programs that interest my visitors. Although I'm most familiar with them so that may be a reason too.

In my opinion Clickbank is by far the best. The products convert well and I make a living creating Adwords campaigns on the various CB products.

hmm thats tough alright

seeing as i have tried alot of them... Yahoo isn't great and CJ isn't either.... hmmm i found that clickbank was more of a scam than a money making thing. I stick with google because it is easy simple and it is common so i know everyone gets treated the same

Google and Yahoo aren't affiliate networks so I'm not sure what you mean.

Now that's fascinating! So you simply find CB products and bid on them in AdWords and that's all you do? No content websites?

Nope! I find "hot" ClickBank products that aren't overly saturated (in terms of number of sites marketing them) and I buy domain names and create what they call "squeeze pages" to collect e-mail addresses and I setup a series of autoresponders that market the CB products.

Don't get me wrong though. It took a lot trial, error AND money but I just keep testing till I find a profitable combination. There are about 4-5 CB products right now that are bringing me good revenue.

I agree Clickbank is one of the best. They offer the highest commissions because there is no shipping or 3rd party involved. You can earn as much as 70% commission on some of the products versus Amazon that pays a measly 4%.
